XGI: A Python package for higher-order interaction networks

Abstract

CompleX Group Interactions (XGI) is a library for analyzing higher-order networks. Such<br/>networks are used to model interactions of arbitrary size between entities in a complex system.<br/>This library provides methods for building hypergraphs and simplicial complexes; algorithms<br/>to analyze their structure, visualize them, and simulate dynamical processes on them; and a<br/>collection of higher-order datasets. XGI is implemented in pure Python and integrates with the<br/>rest of the Python scientific stack. XGI is designed and developed by network scientists with<br/>the needs of network scientists in mind.
